Hemisphere GNSS has made significant advancements in machine control technology as of 2024. Their latest innovations focus on high-precision GNSS-based machine control and guidance applications, primarily for use in construction and other heavy-duty industries.
One of the key developments from Hemisphere GNSS is their new GradeMetrix platform. This high-value machine guidance solution is designed for dozer and excavator earthmoving applications, among others. The GradeMetrix solutions offer superior performance and are considered to be highly valuable for grading, mining, excavating, or compaction applications. With the next-generation GradeMetrix solutions, Hemisphere continues to expand its presence in the machine control market through its network of dealers and value-added resellers.
Additionally, Hemisphere GNSS has introduced a new Earthworks OEM toolkit. This toolkit allows manufacturers to select components either à la carte or as complete solutions based on their accuracy and durability requirements. The toolkit is fully customizable and flexible, enabling OEMs to tailor displays and outputs to their specifications. This customization allows OEMs to build their own branded systems, which can lead to faster market times, increased revenue streams, and a high cost/value ratio.
In terms of specific products, Hemisphere GNSS has debuted all-new positioning and heading OEM boards with next-gen ASIC technology. These include the Vega 40 and 28 GNSS receivers, which offer access to more than 1,100 channels, including Hemisphere’s Atlas GNSS global corrections network. These receivers are significant upgrades for existing designs and provide multi-frequency, multi-GNSS capabilities. They have been designed to optimize performance and include features like the Lyra II digital ASIC, Aquila wideband RF ASIC, and Cygnus interference mitigation technology.
Furthermore, Hemisphere GNSS has expanded the features of its GradeMetrix excavator solutions by adding support for knuckle boom and swing boom excavators. This addition is especially beneficial in the compact excavator market, offering enhanced ROI for customers.
These advancements reflect Hemisphere GNSS’s commitment to providing high-performance satellite positioning solutions that can endure demanding and hazardous environments, such as extreme temperatures. The company aims to offer top-of-the-line machine control components for heavy machinery like dozers, excavators, graders, among others, ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and profitability in their operations.
